Systems such as dams and power plants use turbines and generators to generate electricity along with any other components, which then transfer the energy to our power grid which uses an enormous system of wires used to step down energy so that it can safely be delivered to a home or other building for use.

<h3>What are power plant?</h3>

A power station , also called a power plant and sometimes a power plant , is an industrial facility for the production of electricity. Power plants are usually connected to the power grid.

In case of electrical demand, water is let in from the  elevated tank into the lower tank. It produces electricity as it flows through a turbine, which produces motion and electricity. Thermal power plants produce electricity by converting heat into electricity, mainly through combustion.

When comparing solids to fluids, the following is true: for elastic solids, the stress must be normal. For Newtonian fluids, the
Nat2105 [25]

Answer: D

Find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Elastic solid will obey Hooke's law which state that the force applied is proportional to the extension provided the elastic limit is not exceeded.

Examples of Newtonian fluid are water, glycerol, honey and all organic solvents

When comparing solids to fluids, the below statement is true

We can therefore conclude that

For elastic solids, stress is linearly related to strain, and for Newtonian fluids, stress is linearly related to strain rate

) A brick of clay is being dried in a batch dryer using constant drying conditions. You have been asked to determine the amount
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The drying time is calculated as shown

Explanation:

Data:

Let the moisture content be = 0.6

the free moisture content be = 0.08

total moisture of the clay  = 0.64

total drying time for the period = 8 hrs

then if the final dry and wet masses are calculated, it follows that

t = (X0+ Xc)/Rc) + (Xc/Rc)* ln (Xc/X)

 = 31.3 min.

Cool water at 15°C is throttled from 5(atm) to 1(atm), as in a kitchen faucet. What is the temperature change of the water? What
Tresset [83]

Answer:

the lost work per kilogram of water for this everyday household happening = 0.413 kJ/kg

Explanation:

Given that:

Initial Temperature T_1 = 15°C

Initial Pressure P_1 = 5 atm

Final Pressure P_2 = 1 atm

Data obtain from steam tables of saturated water at  15°C are as follows:

Specific volume  v = 1.001 cm³/gm

The change in temperature = 2°C

Specific heat of water = 4.19 J/gm.K

volume expansivity β = 1.5 × 10⁻⁴ K⁻¹

The expression to determine the change in temperature can be given as :

\delta \ T = \frac{-V (1- \beta \ T}{C_p} * \delta \ P ( \frac{1}{9.87} \ \frac{J}{cm^3/atm})\delta \ T = \frac{-1.001 \frac{cm^3}{gm} (1- 1.5*10^{-4} \  K^{-1} )*2}{4.19 \ \frac{J}{gm.K}} *(5-1)atm ( \frac{1}{9.87} \ \frac{J}{cm^3/atm})

Δ T = 0.093 K

Now; we can calculate the lost work bt the formula:

W_{lost} = T_{surr} *S

where ;

T_{surr} is the temperature of the surrounding. = 20°C = (20+273.15)K =  293.15 K

From above the change in entropy is:

\delta \  S = C_p \  In (\frac{T+ \delta \ T }{T}) *  \beta V \delta P

\delta \  S = 4.19*  \  In (\frac{288.15+0.093 }{288.15}) -  1.5*10^{-4} * 1.001 (5-1)* (\frac{1}{9.87})

\delta \  S =1.408*10^{-3} \ J/gm.K

W_{lost} = T_{surr} *S

W_{lost} = 293.15* 1.408*10^{-3} \ J/gm.K

W_{lost} = 0.413 \  kJ/kg

Thus, the lost work per kilogram of water for this everyday household happening = 0.413 kJ/kg

Find the magnitude of the steady-state response of the system whose system model is given by dx(t)/dt+ x(t)-f(t), where f(t) 2co
NISA [10]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Find the magnitude of the steady-state response of the system whose system model is given by

dx(t)/dt + x(t) = f(t)

where f(t) = 2cos8t.  Keep 3 significant figures

Answer: The steady state output x(t) = 0.2481 cos( 8t - 45° )

Explanation:

Given that;

dx(t)/dt + x(t) = f(t)  where f(t) = 2cos8t

dx(t)/dt + x(t) = f(t)

we apply Laplace transformation on both sides

SX(s) + x(s) = f(s)

(S + 1)x(s) = f(s)

f(s) / x(s) = S + 1

x(s) / f(s) = 1 / (S + 1)

Therefore

transfer function = H(s) = x(s)/f(s) = 1/(S+1)

f(t) = 2cos8t →   [ 1 / ( S + 1 ) ]   →  x(t) = Acos(8t - ∅ )

A = Magnitude of steady state output

S = jw

S = j8

so

A = 2 × 1 / √( 8² + 1 ) = 2 / √ (64 + 1 )

A = 2/√65 = 0.2481

∅ = tan⁻¹( 1/1) = 45°

therefore The steady state output x(t) = 0.2481 cos( 8t - 45° )
